About Client

Abu Dhabi Airport Company (ADAC), managing Zayed International Airport, is a premier aviation hub in the UAE, ensuring smooth operations for millions of passengers and critical airport infrastructure. The airport’s radar and air traffic management systems require uninterrupted power to maintain operational safety and efficiency, making reliable backup solutions essential for continuous monitoring and control.

Challenge

The radar and related air traffic systems at Zayed International Airport depend on stable power for uninterrupted functionality. Any power disruption could compromise radar performance, airport safety, and operational efficiency. The challenge was to provide a robust UPS solution capable of delivering high reliability, extended battery backup, and compatibility with existing infrastructure for critical systems.

Project Overview


ACDC Integrated Electrical Solutions supplied and installed two AEC IST7-10 UPS systems (10 kVA, 400V, Online Double Conversion Tower UPS) with internal batteries (32 × 12V 9Ah) to support radar operations. To extend runtime, a BB4 battery cabinet with 64 VRLA batteries was integrated, providing 30 minutes of backup at full load. Additional components included parallel kits, SNMP modules for remote monitoring, and parallel distribution boards to ensure system redundancy. Full services included decommissioning of old UPS units, cable and accessory provision, installation, commissioning, and thorough testing by certified technicians, ensuring the radar systems were fully operational without interruptions.
